The Triangle Golf Challenge Tees Off Twelfth Year

The Triangle Golf Challenge will be contested on June 12 2015 at the Lonnie Poole Golf Course at NC State University.

DURHAM, NC – The Triangle Golf Challenge benefits local Triangle charities and will be contested on Friday, June 12, 2015 at the Lonnie Poole Golf Course at NC State University in Raleigh, NC. Amateur golfers of all skill levels are invited to compete in a two-person scramble format.

The event will begin 8:30 am with a shot-gun start. Guests of the event will have the chance to mix and mingle with celebrity hosts Chris Corchiani, Walter Davis and Levelle Moton. The Lonnie Poole Golf Course was designed by Arnold Palmer and the design team at Arnold Palmer Design Company, and includes stunning views of downtown Raleigh. The course is very playable for all skill levels and a large challenge to low handicap players.

“We are looking forward to another successful event that will assist more families in home ownership, and surround our youth with a community support,” said Sherrod Banks, President of The Banks Foundation. “The generosity of the players, sponsors and all who donate this year is making it possible for The Banks Foundation and Communities In Schools of Durham to really enrich the triangle area.”

The Triangle Golf Challenge is currently soliciting donations, giveaways and sponsorships. For more details, contact Sherrod Banks at 919-474-9137 or by email to sbanks@bankslawfirm.com To view online team registration forms and sponsorship information, visit www.trianglegolfchallenge.org.

The Triangle Golf Challenge

In 2003, The Banks Foundation began holding annual golf tournaments to raise money for families who are moving from welfare to work and from public housing to private homeownership. The board approved an expansion of the Tournament to support other Triangle charities in 2013 and renamed the tournament as the Triangle Golf Challenge.
